<h1>Allowing users to select multiple items</h1>
<p class="whs1">Items in a selector are the elements, metrics, 
 or panels that are listed in the selector. The user selects an item to 
 change the panel or Grid/Graph. <span style="margin-left: 0px;">If the 
 style of the selector is one of those listed below, the user can choose 
 more than one item in the selector:</span></p>
<ul type="disc" class="whs2">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Slider</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Listbox</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Link Bar</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Button Bar</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Check Boxes</p></li>
</ul>
<p class="whs1">Use the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Allow 
 multiple selections</B></span> option to determine whether users can select 
 more than one item in a selector. For all other styles, this option is 
 unavailable, since those styles do not support multiple selections.</p>
<p class="whs1"><span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Note</B></span>: 
 The Check Boxes style always allows multiple selections.</p>
<h2>To enable or disable multiple selections in a selector</h2>
<ol type="1" class="whs3">
	
<li class=p><p>Open the document in <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Design 
 </B></span>or <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Editable Mode</B></span>. </p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>Right-click the selector to modify and select <span 
 style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Properties and Formatting</B></span>. The Properties 
 and Formatting dialog opens.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p>From the left, choose <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Selector</B></span>.</p></li>
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Do one of the following:</p></li>
</ol>
<ul><ul>
<li style="list-style: disc;" type=disc class=p><p class="whs1">To 
 allow the user to choose multiple items in the selector, select the <span 
 style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Allow multiple selections</B></span> check box. 
 </p></li>
		
<li style="list-style: disc;" type=disc class=p><p class="whs1">To 
 disable the user from choosing multiple items in the selector, clear the 
 <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Allow multiple selections</B></span> check 
 box. </p></li>
	</ul>
</ul>
<p class="whs4">By default, the <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>Allow 
 multiple selections</B></span> check box is cleared for the Slider, Listbox, 
 Link Bar, and Button Bar styles. For all other styles, this check box 
 is unavailable and the option is disabled, since those styles do not support 
 multiple selections. The one exception is Check Boxes, where the option 
 is always enabled and you cannot change it.</p>
<ol start="5" type="1" class="whs3">
	
<li class=p><p class="whs1">Click <span style="font-weight: bold;"><B>OK</B></span>
